NFL owners approve Nashville as Super Bowl LXIV host
It's the first time Tennessee's largest city will play host to the NFL's championship game.
The honky-tonks will be packed to the rafters when the Super Bowl comes to Nashville in 2030. NFL owners officially approved Nashville as the site for Super Bowl LXIV, which is scheduled to be played in February of 2030. The game will take place at the Tennessee Titans' new stadium, which is currently under construction.
It is the first time Tennessee's largest city will play host to the NFL's championship game. The vote on Tuesday during the NFL Spring League Meeting at Orlando, Florida, was conducted with a full representation of ownership. "Music City," as it is known, turned out fans in droves for the 2019 NFL Draft, setting what was then an attendance record for the event.
"The 2019 NFL Draft in Nashville was one of the greatest fan events in our history," NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said in a release. "Super Bowl LXIV at the new stadium is the next step in this remarkable football journey. … We can't wait to put on an unforgettable show in 2030.
" The new Nissan Stadium is a $2. 1 billion, fully enclosed, 60,000-seat venue on the Cumberland River. The retractable-roof structure is scheduled to open by February 2027.
